Mike Burroughs and Scotto Discuss it all … Except the F40!?

Mike Burroughs and Scotto Discuss it all … Except the F40!?

Mike Burroughs is back… and he’s got some gripes! If you didn’t already know him from StanceWorks; or indeed for his legendary F40 and K-swapped 308 projects, you may remember Mike as one of our earliest guests alongside Ferrari expert Victoria Bruno. It seems only right to bring him back on and throw him the mic - he’s got some things to say! (Oh, and stop asking him when the F40 project will be done!). Apart from *cough* that project… Mike has plenty of other fascinating projects, and he even gives us a sneak peek of what’s in the pipeline. Beyond the metal, Scotto and Mike get borderline philosophical on this one, it’s a ripper. Enjoy!

The Ballast Boys are Back … again! Who doesn’t love a hang with the boys and quickly becoming regulars on Very Vehicular, Ron Zaras and Vin Anatra are here to play a little Topic Roulette with Scotto.

From RC Cars to Race Team Owner - Stephan Papadakis Reveals Everything

Joining us this week on Very Vehicular we have Stephan Papadakis! From his earliest beginnings in the SoCal RC hobby scene, to his record-shattering years as a legendary figure of the drag racing world, arriving on the mountain top as race team owner and all-around engineering wizard, we find out: is there anything Steph Papadakis can’t do? Scotto gets the deep backstory on the game-changing FWD drag cars that shattered records (first into the 9s!) and how those cars came to be. It’s a tale stranger than fiction! We find out all about Steph’s move into drifting - again, innovating, taking names and shaking things up. Of course, there’s always time left over to opine on the state of motorsports, youtube, takeovers, and what’s next for Stephan.

What are the WORST Car Mod Trends? Scotto, Zack and Zac Debate!

It’s time for a change up and after exploring several Top 5 lists, we thought it was high time to settle the WORST modding trends of the last decade. Who better to find the definitive ranking than Zack Klapman of The Smoking Tire and returning deviant and partner in mischief Mister Zachary (Zac Mertens). This episode may hold the record for the most censorship beeps ever featured on the show in its entire run to date (and yes.. Producer Nick did cry in legal many times) but to get the full skinny, go check out the Patreon - you never know what you’ll hear over there. For now, time to find out if you are one of the modding elite, or a common style criminal. Only Firing Order has the answers - enjoy!
